Team Information
Reputation
Early in the team's history, the monster mash was initially regarded as a flash-in-the-pan nuiscance in /vg/ and something of a blight, but time and familiarity has softened things a bit. While the threads themselves remain interminably horny and autistic, Undertale (along with the parts of Deltarune that FUCKING HACK HAS GOTTEN OFF HIS LAZY ASS TO RELEASE) has stood the test of time. Whatever borderline-/trash/ fanart smut or mentally ill tripfagging is happening in the thread, at least people like seeing the team out on the pitch.
After a long hiatus from the league, their VGL17 return gave them a new lease on life as a mid-tier collection of pranksters, escaping groups regularly but iffy in knockouts and quick to exit if they see Final Day action. Their actual skill and performance fluctuates wildly: choking against gimme opponents, sneaking out undeserved wins, going GOD OF HYPERDEATH mode without warning, racking up fouls, or playing some of the most unwatchable spaghetti-dropping zero-IQ garbage ever witnessed by man or beast. If they exceed expectations they're a Cinderella story, and if they under-perform they're exposed frauds and retards that should be banished and sealed underground. Whatever they do, it's usually funny... just be sure the joke isn't on you.
History
Previous save states can be seen at /utg/ History.
/vg/ League 19
As the first cup under live coaching in many years, Group E of /vg/ League 19 was predominantly new faces, but an opponent met once before in /digi/ was up first. Jevil, now confined to a wheelchair, decided to finally start doing things (scores, assists, defense, back flips, etc.) en route to being honored Man of the Match after a 2-0 victory. That win was ultimately a twotoriel tutorial match, though, as /feg/ chose their match against us to not bench a medal, and proceeded to kick the monster gang up and down the pitch for the first half. The second half was better, but ultimately the damage was done, and a valuable lesson was learned about fluid formations cobbled together the night before. Sitting as the low 3 of a precarious 4-3-3-1 in group stage math, it was essentially Just Win LOL against /alg/; doable, but not guaranteed. After another intensive all-night cram session before the game, the team discovered the fabled tactic known as "having offense" and cruised to not only victory, but narrowly clinching the top of the group without even using their substitutions.
Elated with the fact he didn't completely shit the bed, the coach happily crashed asleep... and totally missed that there was a bonus playoff against /pmmm/ later that day; oops. Thankfully, The Lads knew the playbook and the team took a 3-1 win to a temporary top-eight seeding. After a nice Day 10 not having to manage via phone (and Flowey getting Day 9 Player of the Day for being a cheeky li'l shit) the Round of 16 match against /fgoalter/ proved to be a nail biter. LIZ LOVE drew first blood, but a goddamn ERA PENAL put the score level again. A cheeky 45+1 brace from DETERMINATION had /utg/ up at the half, but Kiryu-chan soon pulled it even. At last, buoyed by the synergy of Susie and Krabs in the backfield, Determination nailed a crucial hat trick at 87' and sent /utg/ to their second-ever Final Day. Unfortunately, the team's coaster car ride ran out of track against /akg/; two quick goals early in the first half couldn't be answered, and the monsters lost by one, just like their meeting in the New Thread Cup not long prior. Still, at least the difference wasn't a FUCKING MICKEY MOUSE FREE KICK. And hey, SPAMTON ACTUALLY SCORED! Top 8 for the second time ever, ending a six year drought? Pretty good. Now to laugh, and return to their mind palace...
/vg/ League X-2 or 20 or Whatever
The team enjoyed their downtime before /vg/ League X-2 began, including finally notching a(n exhibition) win against their Super High-School Level white whale /drg/, but the new season brought new challenges. League officials' new rules and a return to PES19 took time to get adjusted to, and the opponents of Group D presented an immediate threat amid the headache of a playbook revamp. /gig/ had just come off winning bronze last League, /@/ was in similarly strong form having kicked the tar out of the team in recent memory, and the newly-debuting /xgg/ represented a complete unknown.
With /xgg/ to face down first, Burgerpants scored quick and the team held it together for most of their first game against the rookies... but it didn't last. They were plagued by fatigue in the last 15 minutes of play, and a 2-0 lead dissolved quickly into a hard-fought tie, thanks in no small part to Starwalker's tenacious goalkeeping. Uncharacteristically for the Extended Universe Fun Gang, they responded next week's group math pressure with a fury not even their coach knew they had in them. /gig/ drew first blood, but unknowingly had opened their own personal Doorway to Brazil, spending minute 27 on having a really, really bad time. The team sat (precariously) at the top of the group, with a big cushion between them and group stage elimination, but the idols of /@/ were in top form... and /utg/ knew it. They assumed a defensive position, and kept the loss from being a rout, but a baited foul from FAT BITCH got Jevil his second yellow card, suspending him before Survival Round when the team needed him most to do something... anything!
Day 9's mind-warping length led to a series of impromptu pickup matches, and a loss to /5N@F/ at the end of a seemingly endless day sank the team's spirit and brainpower even further. As a result, their Day 10 rematch with /fgoalter/ was one of the most dreadful contests in recent memory... at least until it went to 0-0 penalties after ET and looped back around to being funny. The first 3 exchanges went tit-for-fat, but a save on Burgerpants proved the difference maker. The monsters clawed out a roster slot all the way at the far end of the bench, but the tournament was over for them. While the post-revival representative streak survived the ordeal, the team was demonstrably in need of some work.
/vg/ League 21
Faced with rules and configurations changing drastically once again, it was the right time for the addition of Trainer !!z/nDNyNKZRL to double the team's management staff to a mind-boggling two people. The friendlies were a vital time to try new things out and consult the fans. Sans' experiments with radioactive calcium turned him briefly into a Papyrus-sized behemoth, but the plan was ultimately rejected after sizable losses to /2hug/ and /indie/ brethren. Even besides the valuable practice, at least Tall Sans scared the bejesus out of /aceg/ for a match. These games were also the farewell tour for Toriel "GOATmom" Dreemurr, who retired her #3 jersey and opted to bake cinnamon and/or butterscotch and/or snail pies for after the team's games. In her stead came her second-favorite son Kris, with knife and cage-wagon in tow.
The team was slotted into Group C, featuring the stalwart /fgog/, the plucky-but-beleaguered /omg/, and FUCKING LE MICKEY FREEKICKEY ZERO SANALDO /akg/ not long after clashing on VGL19's final day. With a group this competitive, /utg/ sought group points and big scores early out the gate, and were lucky to face the debuting Omega Strikers first. The match was an offensive free-for-all, a defensive letdown, and a goalkeeping shitshow, but /utg/ was able to outpace the quasi-soccer players. After trading bloots to 3-3, Spamton finally scored his second VGL-career goal (showing off his new goalhorn) to go up at the half. The creatures held that lead (and extended it slightly) to the end... but not before the #1 Rated Salesman also picked up a pointless yellow card in post-90' stoppage. That's our Big Shit alright.
Wasting no time getting the clown show on the road, BIG SHIT picked up his second VGL21 yellow card at TWO MINUTES INTO THE NEXT FUCKING GAME, ensuring he would spend grip weekend cooling off in his goddamn garbage can. The Free Kick Free Goal Merchants capitalized right away, and only twenty minutes in it was already 0-2. However, in the spirit of CHAOS, Jevil opened the doors for a rally, and twenty minutes after that awful start the gang was up 3-2. They held that lead from minute 40 clear into the last moments of stoppage, during which Jevil got his first ever brace and gave the audience their first taste of TRUE CHAOS over the stadium PA. By Day 6's end, /utg/ was atop a 6-3-3-0 group, but a date with /fgog/ on Spam Filter Saturday and the threat potential triple-six tragedy still loomed. Despite briefly holding the lead during the close game, the monsters ultimately fell behind 2-3 just after second-half kickoff and the match fizzled out from there. Though Group C victory was secured, the battle-tested theater geeks of /revue/ took the monsters out 2-1 in a Round of 16 spaghetti-fest that saw Burgerpants as both the target of various tackles and the only monster who remembered where the opponent's net was. Still, with the post-revival rep streak intact, anything else would've been icing on the eugenics-free lemon bread. Until next time.
/vg/ League 22
The gang enjoyed their time in pre-League friendlies by sandwiching yet another loss to /indie/ with two exciting benuldies clinches against storied racists /vgt/ and the dearly departed /fg/, unknowingly setting the tone for their draw-heavy match results to come in Group L. Whether or not they simply forgot that group stage games don't go to shootouts is not fully known, but the pattern started right away with /llsifg/, with the team going from 2-0 at the half to a hard-fought 3-3 amid careful coach manuevering. Next came /smbg/ which, despite being HIS TEAM and HIS PITCH and another MOTM nod for Determination, was actually all Burgerpants' show; long connections from his boss frequently set up juke moves and acrobatic trick passes in a Globetrotters-esque 4-1 rout, earning the neurotic wagie a Player of the Day nod for his effort.
The team came into Grip Weekend on a razor's edge lead at 4-4-3-0, but the team was apparently due for another spaghetti-spilling nil-nil freak show of a match against the long-suffering and already-eliminated /mmg/. The hapless robots were absolutely stonewalled by Starwalker to the tune of six saves and a keeper Man of the Match. Somehow, despite that crime against footie, which left the managers feeling compelled to literally apologize, the group's final match of idols and plumbers also resulted in a (much more entertaining) draw, which secured the Fun Gang top of the group on a meager 5 points.
The Round of 16 showdown with /nikg/ featured a scheduling conflict that forced the team's head coach away for the day, but the former head coach managed to put down the paperwork and act as human pastebin for the day. The game plan was cooked to perfection (and reheated in the microwave on match day) to the tune of box-peppering 2-0 win and the team's third Final Day berth. Unfortunately, a stronger thread of fate would reassert itself; the team's medals had their guns all go cold in the Quarterfinals against /gfg/, leaving Susie of all people to step up and notch the lone monster goal on a lone heroic curler. Once again, despite carrying on the streak of /vg/ call-ups and cementing their post-revival consistency, reaching the Final Four and true glory remained an unfulfilled prophecy. Don't forget...

Rivalries
Major Rivalries
 | ||||||||
| Quirky Derby Call it this or whatever else you like: Fangamer Merch Derby, Earthbound Inspiration Derby, YIIK-Like Derby. The fact remains that Undertale and at least half of the potpourri general's roster are inexorably linked in people's minds, and if /utg/ as a general were to suddenly vanish, they would quickly colonize (and fucking ruin) their li'l /indie/ brother. However, the monsters have never managed to best the combined power of these other games, and the score gap has only grown wider with each passing meeting in Friendlies for 9, X and 21. 22 Pulled it back to 1-0, but another loss is still a loss. Still, despite it all, the two have yet to meet for a match with League consequences. Would fortunes change with higher stakes? Will we ever even get to find out? Only time will tell. | ||||||||
0-0-0
|
 | ||||||||
| Danmaku Derby Where many /utg/ rivalries begin on the field, this one was born from the fans' thirst for blood. As the wait for more UT/DR content piled on more and more days, /2hug/ collaborations (and distractions for Toby Fox's attention) earned envy and scorn. What was meant to be a friendly celebration of bullet patterns became an minor instigating event. It makes total sense, in retrospect. "First that hack wastes valuable Chapter 3 development time chasing Gensokyo hussies? And then they casually drop by our home pitch to beat us?! Vengeance! Violence! Or something like that. Also, /2hug/ becoming VGL champions shortly after that meeting may mean /utg/ has to wait at the back of the line... | ||||||||
0-0-0
|
 | ||||||||
| Definitely Not Furries Derby Friendly fare, but still a few historical wrinkles. The two met first in the VGL17 Qualifiers, where the Friends took the win. However, /utg/ topped the qualifiers in the end and made the /vg/ roster, while the gijinkas ate a disappointing group stage exit. They met again more or less right away in VGL18's group stage, but there /kfg/ lost and were ultimately denied a berth to a roster slot by that match and a crushing late-game loss to /utg/'s other concurrent rival. Oh, the despair... Even without meeting on the pitch, /utg/ has still figured into Japari Park heartbreak, such as edging them out of yet another roster slot during SR1 of VGL X-2. The teams have stayed clear of one another since, though, and both made it in VGL21! Sugoi! Long story short, the versus record doesn't quite paint the whole picture here, and any future meetings may add yet more twists of fate. | ||||||||

Minor Rivalries
 | ||||||||
| Requiem for a Fat Bitch One of a handful of budding rivalries yet to become a full-blown derby, mostly because of how handily the idols have had the upper hand so far. In both their meetings they served the monsters a painful 1-3 loss; the first time in VGL18 it was a knockout. In VGLX-2 it was merely a group stage drubbing, but a baited foul from Kotoha Tanaka left /utg/ Jevil-less in a Survival Round embarrassment that sent them packing. While /@/ yo-yo every now and again, their abilities when firing on all cylinders are renowned and rightly feared. Notching a win against the team represents an aspiration; with their last white whale (arguably) slain and vanished, time will tell if this becomes the monsters' new team to beat. (Also if that fake-humble slag of theirs decides to act up again and cement this as a personal thing.) | ||||||||
0-0-2
|
 | ||||||||
| The Knockout Game Another simmering grudge which hasn't yet become either a white whale or a blood feud. This particular gang of gacha gooners suffered a hotly-contested Round of 16 exit at the monsters' hands and feet in VGL19, giving their rematch in the Survival Round of the very next league tournament a piquant spiciness. Of course, /utg/ couldn't do anything thanks to a medal disadvantage, and after 120 FULL MINUTES OF DOMINATION, the match was ultimately settled as a 0(3)-0(4) loss in benuldies... after which /vn/ handily dispatched /fgoalter/ as frauds. (Sure, the same would've almost certainly happened to /utg/ in the same place, but still!) For an eggsdra-dime win after an atrocious match against a handicapped opponent, the Chaldeans were a bit lippy. But then again they're always like that, so it's all in good fun. For now. | ||||||||
1-0-1
|
 | ||||||||
| Hopes and Dreams Similar to the proto-rivalry of /fgoalter/, this is another story told in terms of tournament eliminations. One team is a former Final Day regular with one of the most extensive management teams in the league, and the other is a floating eyeball and a coach trying to coax wins from a goalie with no arms. After an instructional thumping in the inaugural New Thread Cup and ending /utg/'s Cinderella second-ever Final Day in VGL19, Mt. Ebott's Monsters and Rhodes Island's Operators faced each other again just two cups later. This time, chaos and determination turned the tables on edgekino and Mickey Mouse magic with a 5-3 comeback that dunked their hopes for a Group Stage pass, fanning rumors of the Golden Age's end. While /akg/ do some tenrolls to try get their mojo (and sanity) back, who will be the first to reach the heights the Arknights left behind? | ||||||||
